Album of the Day – 02.12.14: When You’re Strange – Music From the Motion Picture

When you’re strangeFaces come out of the rainWhen you’re strangeNo one remembers your name

Looking back on the life and times of The Doors, we remember Ray Manzarek, keyboardist for The Doors, who would have been 75 today. Manzarek passed away on May 20, 2013. He was considered one of the greats of his time, considered to be “instrumental in shaping one of the most influential, controversial and revolutionary groups of the ’60s. Such memorable tracks as ‘Light My Fire’, ‘People are Strange’ and ‘Hello, I Love You’ – to name but a few – owe much to Manzarek’s innovative playing.” (Greg Harris)
